private ownership is best for everything because people that own something care about it more
How do they square that with the fact that private ownership results in the accumulation of industry in a handful of people, leaving the vast majority to be dispossessed and alienated workers
They don't. They talked about how the staff microwave in the place they worked was dirty and poorly maintained, versus the nice one they owned at home. :maybe-later-kiddo: :maybe-later-honey:
Fanfics are basically copyright infringement but most big media companies ignore it because it doesn't really affect profits enough for them to care (or has a positive effect). They're passion projects done for free 99% of the time, and occasionally people will "finish" dead fics if the OP disappears for a few years.
Oh I see, and yes, I do agree. People that like something will do incredible things with it as a labor of love, which also defies the capitalist dogma of money as the only incentive for effort.
And some corporations clamp down hard on fan anything. Paramount was especially douchey with Prelude to Axanar and Star Trek Phase 2, for example.

So, never read a 400k+ word fanfiction, eh?
:what:
I may have missed the reference.

That's very silly given that Star Trek was one of the first big fanfic fandoms.
